myDevices to Connect Hundreds of LoRaWAN Sensors to Microsoft Azure

3 months ago

LOS ANGELES–(BUSINESS WIRE)–lt;a href=”https://twitter.com/hashtag/AzureIoT?src=hash” target=”_blank”gt;#AzureIoTlt;/agt;–myDevices, the IoT solutions company, today announced a powerful
collaboration with Microsoft that empowers users to onboard hundreds of
LoRaWAN devices to instantly send data directly to Microsoft Azure.
myDevices has amassed one of the most extensive known catalogs of
pre-configured LoRaWAN sensors and gateways, consisting of nearly 200
different devices from over 50 hardware manufacturers from around the
world. The devices range from standard indoor temperature sensors to
industrial strength tank monitoring devices and everything in between.
All of the sensors and gateways include a scannable QR code that is used
with the myDevices’ IoT in a Box™ mobile application. Scanning the QR
code with the app connects the device, decodes the payload, normalizes
the data for interoperability, and provides the user with features such
as sensor activity logs, time-series visualization charts, sensor maps,
customizable alerts, corrective action reports, permission-based user
management, white label deployments, and more.

“System integrators, MSPs, VARs, ISVs, and developers provide IT
products and managed services to SMB and enterprise customers who want
to save money and increase efficiencies by automating processes, but
piecing together IoT solutions has proven to be complex,” said Kevin
Bromber, CEO of myDevices. “IoT will only become prevalent if it is easy
to sell and deploy, and myDevices’ mission is 100% focused on
simplifying IoT.”

Tom Davis, Principal PM Manager for Azure IoT, Microsoft, said, “One of
the biggest challenges of IoT is getting devices, from different
hardware manufacturers, connected into an IoT platform and making them
interoperable. myDevices’ technology helps Microsoft Azure IoT users
accelerate their time to market by reducing the complexity of connecting
this wide variety of devices. This integration enables myDevices’ users
to take advantage of the services offered through Azure such as Advanced
Analytics, AI, Business Intelligence, and other services that help the
most demanding enterprise customers quickly deploy custom,
commercially-ready solutions.”

Through this collaboration, myDevices offers Microsoft customers IoT in
a Box™ pre-packaged solutions. These ready-to-deploy, end-to-end IoT
solutions include an expansive library of sensors and gateways, as well
as application software, device management, connectivity, and sales and
marketing materials to empower a system integrator, MSP, ISV, or VAR to
immediately deploy commercial-ready solutions to their end customers.
These IoT in a Box™ templates are turnkey with flexibility to customize
with other available integrations and APIs.

LoRa-technology sensor and gateway manufacturers interested in adding
their devices to the ever-growing IoT catalog can submit their hardware
at no cost through this online form: www.mydevices.com/iotready.
